So that, Windows 7, and a Asus driver come to just below $1300 (Canadian)
Can anyone give me some advice on this? I think it is a pretty decent build, has everything everyone looks for.
*I am buying from a Canadian Shop so prices may be slightly different, but everything pretty much equals out.

System looks good, but here are my 2 cents:

You don't need a 700w psu, 600W will be MORE than enough, see if you can get a 80plus Silver or Gold (more efficient).

Secondly, I would recommend upgrading your graphics card to a current generation card e.g. AMD 7870, AMD 7950 or GTX670 if you can stretch your budget.

Looks good. Only thing as zander mentioned, upgrade the the VGA. You got a "K" series, assuming you are looking at overclocking. So, you can keep if you are looking at overclocking and Xfir/SLi with enough juice.

Alright, I will look into my options for a better graphics card, seeing as I am pushing my budget as it is, might as well go full out. And yumj could you give some examples of what to look for when getting a cpu? I got a K series because it has been recommended over the i7 ones.

Thanks. Enjoy your new rig!

The "K" CPUs are unlocked which allows you to overclock them MUCH higher and easier than stock non-K CPUs.
